Weird Al Yankovic has released “Alpocalypse,” his 13th studio album, which is the quirky parody singer’s first studio album in almost five years. The album leads with the already-famous “Born This Way” parody called “Perform This Way,” here is the complete track listing:

1. Perform This Way (Parody of “Born This Way” by Lady Gaga)

2. CNR

3. TMZ (Parody of “You Belong With Me” by Taylor Swift)

4. Skipper Dan

5. Polka Face; Liechtensteiner Polka Poker Face Womanizer Right
Round Day ‘N’ Nite Need You Now Baby So What I Kissed A Girl
Fireflies Blame It Replay Down Break Your Heart Tick Tolk Polka
Tik Tok Whatever’s Left Over Polka

6. Craigslist

7. Party In The CIA (Parody of “Party In The U.S.A.” by Miley Cyrus)

8. Ringtone

9. Another Tattoo (Parody of “Nothin’ On You” by B.o.B. featuring Bruno Mars)

The physical album is available in two configurations – as a regular
CD in a standard plastic jewel case with a 20-page color booklet, or
(for just slightly more) as a deluxe version with both a CD and DVD in a
digipak (also with the color 20-page booklet) as well a cool embossed
cover with gold foil lettering. The DVD includes music videos for ten
(TEN!!) of the songs on the new album.

The “Perform This Way” video is unfortunately not on the new album’s DVD (we just finished it a couple days ago, for crying out loud) but it’s available on iTunes
right now. And I tweeted a while back that we were doing a video for
every single song on the new album. I wasn’t lying! That means I’m also
doing a video for “Polka Face” – the first time I’ve ever done an
“official” video for one of my polka medleys. 10 separate directors are
currently working on this… it will be mostly animated, but there’s a
tiny bit of live action as well. It’ll be out in about a month.

I announced that “Alpocalypse” is being released on vinyl in July, and I’m very excited about that.
